+Exit with the status determined by EXPRESSION.
+.TP
+\fB\-\-help\fR
+display this help and exit
+.TP
+\fB\-\-version\fR
+output version information and exit
+.PP
+An omitted EXPRESSION defaults to false. Otherwise,
+EXPRESSION is true or false and sets exit status. It is one of:
+.TP
+( EXPRESSION )
+EXPRESSION is true
+.TP
+! EXPRESSION
+EXPRESSION is false
+.TP
+EXPRESSION1 \fB\-a\fR EXPRESSION2
+both EXPRESSION1 and EXPRESSION2 are true
+.TP
+EXPRESSION1 \fB\-o\fR EXPRESSION2
+either EXPRESSION1 or EXPRESSION2 is true
+.TP
+\fB\-n\fR STRING
+the length of STRING is nonzero
+.TP
+STRING
+equivalent to \fB\-n\fR STRING
+.TP
+\fB\-z\fR STRING
+the length of STRING is zero
+.TP
+STRING1 = STRING2
+the strings are equal
+.TP
+STRING1 != STRING2
+the strings are not equal
+.TP
+INTEGER1 \fB\-eq\fR INTEGER2
+INTEGER1 is equal to INTEGER2
+.TP
+INTEGER1 \fB\-ge\fR INTEGER2
+INTEGER1 is greater than or equal to INTEGER2
+.TP
+INTEGER1 \fB\-gt\fR INTEGER2
+INTEGER1 is greater than INTEGER2
+.TP
+INTEGER1 \fB\-le\fR INTEGER2
+INTEGER1 is less than or equal to INTEGER2
+.TP
+INTEGER1 \fB\-lt\fR INTEGER2
+INTEGER1 is less than INTEGER2
+.TP
+INTEGER1 \fB\-ne\fR INTEGER2
+INTEGER1 is not equal to INTEGER2
+.TP
+FILE1 \fB\-ef\fR FILE2
+FILE1 and FILE2 have the same device and inode numbers
+.TP
+FILE1 \fB\-nt\fR FILE2
+FILE1 is newer (modification date) than FILE2
+.TP
+FILE1 \fB\-ot\fR FILE2
+FILE1 is older than FILE2
+.TP
+\fB\-b\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is block special
+.TP
+\fB\-c\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is character special
+.TP
+\fB\-d\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is a directory
+.TP
+\fB\-e\fR FILE
+FILE exists
+.TP
+\fB\-f\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is a regular file
+.TP
+\fB\-g\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is set\-group\-ID
+.TP
+\fB\-G\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is owned by the effective group ID
+.TP
+\fB\-h\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is a symbolic link (same as \fB\-L\fR)
+.TP
+\fB\-k\fR FILE
+FILE exists and has its sticky bit set
+.TP
+\fB\-L\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is a symbolic link (same as \fB\-h\fR)
+.TP
+\fB\-N\fR FILE
+FILE exists and has been modified since it was last read
+.TP
+\fB\-O\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is owned by the effective user ID
+.TP
+\fB\-p\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is a named pipe
+.TP
+\fB\-r\fR FILE
+FILE exists and the user has read access
+.TP
+\fB\-s\fR FILE
+FILE exists and has a size greater than zero
+.TP
+\fB\-S\fR FILE
+FILE exists and is a socket
+.TP
+\fB\-t\fR FD
+file descriptor FD is opened on a terminal
+.TP
+\fB\-u\fR FILE
+FILE exists and its set\-user\-ID bit is set
+.TP
+\fB\-w\fR FILE
+FILE exists and the user has write access
+.TP
+\fB\-x\fR FILE
+FILE exists and the user has execute (or search) access
+.PP
+Except for \fB\-h\fR and \fB\-L\fR, all FILE\-related tests dereference symbolic links.
+Beware that parentheses need to be escaped (e.g., by backslashes) for shells.
+INTEGER may also be \fB\-l\fR STRING, which evaluates to the length of STRING.
+.PP
+NOTE: Binary \fB\-a\fR and \fB\-o\fR are inherently ambiguous. Use 'test EXPR1 && test
+EXPR2' or 'test EXPR1 || test EXPR2' instead.
+.PP
+NOTE: [ honors the \fB\-\-help\fR and \fB\-\-version\fR options, but test does not.
+test treats each of those as it treats any other nonempty STRING.
+.PP
+NOTE: your shell may have its own version of test and/or [, which usually supersedes
+the version described here. Please refer to your shell's documentation
+for details about the options it supports.
